Kellysheroes Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 Hi, Ok first off I really hate RTS games, 2ndly I hate rts games that are pauseable. But, if the game has to be rts and pauseable I request a "right click mouse button pause feature". I'ma lazy gamer I want to do everything with my mouse, most especially if playing an RTS clickfest game. Anyway to implement this or allow for player control settings to setup the rmb to pause the game???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Other Means Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 In the larger context of being able to change key mappings, I'd agree. In this specific case I'd rather map the RMB to something more useful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Megakill Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 Is Spacebar such a problem? You have to hit it to pause. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeatEtr Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 While we're at it, can we get one of those russian hotties along with the game too? I know that may be asking for a bit too much. But I'm looking forward to the vodka that goes along with the purchase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ComradeP Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 Spacebar for pause makes the most sense, is it appeals to RTS players used to Sudden Strike or Blitzkrieg and the spacebar is BIG and can hardly be missed. I prefer to use the right mouse button for something like an option menu or for standard orders (based on the situation, the usual move/fire etc stuff).

RMC Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 'Cept the first CC. You had to press and hold the left mouse button to summon the orders menu. Screwed me up every time I've gone back to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ComradeP Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 RMC: the only problems I have with "which button to press for the menu?" is with RPG's on the PC, where one usually has to use the LMB to summon a menu. Playing RPG's and wargames on the same day can, as such, result in some "misclicks." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Screwed me up every time I've gone back to it. thats because IIRC johnny-come-lately didnt evolve with cc but jumped the bandwagon with cc2 and only later discovered THE TRUTH . For people being raised with CC it was the other way around, they had to get used to that new U/I handling of cc2+. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But only when wearing orcish scalemail while playing the wargame. Those damn gauntlets really screw with your paws. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ComradeP Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 Yeah, steel gauntlets give me a -6 modifier on the "Mouse Usage" skill. Wearing full platemail hinders my "Sitting on a chair without breaking it" skill with a -20 penalty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
